The wave-current interaction simulation was performed by utilizing SWAN (Simulating Waves Nearshore) in stationary mode and using the unstructured triangular grid. Data of wind velocity and direction as model inputs were obtained from BMKG (Indonesian Agency for Meteorology, Climatology, and Geophysics), whereas tidal current velocity data was obtained from TMD (Tide Model Driver). The model was simulated in two different scenarios, i.e. without and with following (adverse) current which is same (opposite) with wave propagation. The model input of dominant west wind was used to represent the west monsoon, while the dominant wind from the north was used to represent the east monsoon. The simulation results show that the maximum wave height is 2.98 m in the west monsoon and 1.9 m in east monsoon. In the west (east) monsoon the following current decrease wave height to 9.26% (5.09%), while the adverse current increase wave height up to 9.07% (6.56%).[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Author keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]Adverse currents,Maximum wave height,Simulating waves,Stationary modes,Tidal currents,Triangular grid,Wave current interaction,Wind velocity and direction[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Indexed keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text][/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Funding details” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text][/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”DOI” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]https://doi.org/10.1088/1755-1315/162/1/012007[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/4″][vc_column_text]Widget Plumx[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][/vc_column][/vc_row]
